Funded Activity Summary

For Better or For Worse? Understanding the Revolution in Married Life in Australia. Marriage has traditionally been viewed as the bedrock institution of society. But recent evidence suggests that marriage patterns have been transformed. People are marrying less, and those who do are marrying later, separating more, and often marrying after cohabiting and having children. What are the consequences of these changes for people's experience of these relationships and for other outcomes, such as relationship quality, life satisfaction and views about marriage? This project will provide important information that will enable greater understanding of changing family patterns and provide critical data for policy-makers concerned with the social welfare of individuals and the changing role of the family in Australia today.
